RESUMEN
Objective To explore the efficacy of the resolving depression and tranquilizing herbal sachets in alleviating sleep disorders of soldiers in naval vessels. Methods Fifty-nine soldiers with sleep disorders (PSQI scale score ≥8 and SAS scale score ≥50) were selected before training at sea, and were randomly divided into sachet treatment group, mindfulness meditation group and control group. During the training period, the sachet treatment group was given traditional Chinese medicine sachet treatment, the mindfulness meditation group was trained in mindfulness meditation, and the control group was not given any intervention. Results Compared with the control group, the PSQI and SAS scores of soldiers in both the experimental sachet treatment group and the positive meditation group were significantly improved; compared with the pre-intervention data, the PSQI and SAS scores of both the positive meditation group and the sachet treatment group were significantly decreased, and the degree of decrease was comparable. Conclusion The homemade improving depression and tranquilizing TCM sachets have the effect of alleviating the sleep disorders of naval troops served on vessels, which is equivalent to mindfulness meditation. It is easy to use and operate, which is suitable for promotion in the military.
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the outcome of a new designed extramedullary femoral alignment system and to compare with conventional intramedullary system in clinical results.Methods Twenty consecutive patients (3 males and 17females with an average age of 70.1 (range,52-82 years old) with osteoarthritis (OA) or rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who were treated with the extramedullary method between January 2015 to August 2015 and 20 consecutive patients (5 males and 15 females with an average age of 65.9 (range,52-87 years old) with OA or RA treated with conventional intramedullary method between April 2015 to September 2015 were studied.In extramedullary group,CT scan was used to evaluate the relation between the hip (femoral head) center and anterior superior iliac spine preoperatively.During the total knee arthroplasty,the hip joint center was defined according to the anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS).Knee joint center was defined as the center of the line connecting medial and lateral epicondyle.The terminal femoral bone cut plane was defined as the line between femoral and knee center.In intramedullary group,the traditional intramedullary method was adopted.The coronal and sagittal alignment,blood loss and drainage at one week postoperatively and the range of motion at one week,6 weeks and 3 months were evaluated.Results There was no significant difference in age,hip-knee-ankle (HKA) angle,the Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) Knee Score,BMI,operation time within the two groups.Blood loss and drainage in extramedullary group (121 ±64 ml and 181±149 ml) was significantly less than that in intramedullary group (177±47 ml and 292±156 ml).There was no significant difference in coronal alignment of the femoral prosthesis within the two groups (89.8°±2.1° v.s.89.8°±2.2°,P＞0.05).However,the two groups had significant difference in sagittal alignment (-0.8°±2.2° v.s.2.5°±2.1 °,P＜0.05).The alignment of extramedullary group had much more tendency in flexion degree.No difference was found in range of motion at 1 week,6 weeks and 3 months postoperatively (103.8°±7.8° v.s.102.5°±7.2°,108.5°±8.0° v.s.108.3°±7.4°,117.0°±7.1° v.s.114.5°±8.1°,P＞0.05).Conclusion The present designed extramedullary system is practical in total knee arthroplasty and has more accuracy in sagittal plane.The patients treated with extramedullary system have less blood loss and drainage and have similar range of motion in early stage after operation when compared with the intramedullary method.
RESUMEN
@#Regarding the fact that there is a huge gap between higher education of assistive technology in China and the social need, the authors discussed about the necessity of developing China's higher education of assistive technology, by discussing about the fact that assistive technology becoming an independent subject, society's need for leaders and designers in the field of assistive technology, the need to develop assistive technology theories and knowledge, the important meaning of developing higher education of special education to support the independent living of persons with disability and opening potential market, the successful example of America's assistive technology and higher education of it being in the leading place.
RESUMEN
@#Assistive technology has been one of key words in the field of special education. It will also be new trend of special educational development. In the article, the authors firstly introduced the definition of assistive technology device and assistive technology service and discussed the relationship between assistive technology and educational technology, and special educational changes in technology and idea because of the use of assistive technology, at last, some suggestions to enhance the use of assistive technology were put forward.
RESUMEN
@#Objective To investigation the condition,expectation and support of quality of life in adult with intellectual disability.MethodsA total of 394 adult with intellectual disability,their parents and friends in Beijing were involved in the study.Their qualities of life were evaluated.ResultsAbout quality of life,the adult with intellectual disability had significant more expectation than they had gained actually;their parents and friends had significant more expectation than themselves and staff of primary rehabilitation did.ConclusionIt is necessary to provide support to improve the quality of life of adult with intellectual disability.
